I forgot to tell you all I dropped a video like 9 months ago... whoops!

If you use this video to draw a picture PLEASE tag me in it so I can see how my videos have helped you. It is the most rewarding thing you can do, seriously, even if you don't copy exactly what I do but use a principle I would really really love to see. Love you all!



And check out my other ones as well!!



















Leave a comment and tell me what you think!

Also if you have any suggestions for a future tutorial, i'm all ears!

I wanted to draw my own Chao OC with that style, but these videos weren't enough for me to draw perfectly.

I've watched the Matt herms tutorial and tried shading Sonic

Also I've noticed a tiny thing. I see in Matt's art characters have gradient in certain places but sometimes in spots it's like it's cell shaded

When do you do the gradient effect on art and characters?

Would these tutorials work in CSP as well???
I know the colouring would probably work, but, idk....You use SAI and I can't get SAI anymore

I'm not sure what exacty CSP is, but all the tools are essentially the same, so it shouldn't be an issue!

I tried to draw my own Sonic's Fan Character and fot that, i used your tuto "How i Color Like the Archie Comics" and "Drawing like Yardley: Hands". The color was the hardestΒ  part and I didn't know to drawn handsΒ , but i did my best :
Β 
Unluckily, This character looks way too much at Sonic. :/

Β 

After, I tried to drawn Sonic And Tails with your tuto "Drawing like Yardley: Anatomy" but I had some problems: :'D

Excuse me! i made this icon a couple of days ago as a request for a friend of mine, i attempted the coloring style of Archie and would like to have your opinion on how i did this. Its the second time i try it with references this time instead of memory.

DredgeTH In reply to Starshock-Raiko [2017-06-22 01:43:13 +0000 UTC]

Wow! For a second attempt at the colouring style you have done a very sound job!
You have chosen bright colours and have a very strong contrast in shades to lights which is pretty essential when emulating the Archie style!
If I could give some tips, the first would be to try and blend the depth colours a little more so that they look more like the darker colour, I know that when I go over my old colouring work, this is the one thing I neglected, I always tried to make the depth colour stand out as much as possible, but subtly is key!

Hope this helps! Β Tag me in more stuff if you ever want a critique again

Awesome breakdown on Yardley's proportioning. the gesture drawings were very helpful. I can't wait to see the next part.

I chuckled when i heard the the instrumental version of Amy's theme in the background. lol

Constructing the head and face

Also, I could do another 3 videos on anatomy of all different characters, but i'll just focus on nailing down sonic

OriginalityAce In reply to DredgeTH [2016-03-31 06:33:43 +0000 UTC]

Good place to start. I think using Sonic is a prime example for the basic body shape for male characters; But I do wonder if the same body framework also applies to female characters, or if they have a different simplified structure. That might be something that could be included when you get to the body/torso video. I Do like that idea of videos showing the other characters' anatomy. Maybe they could be Bonus videos after the main series? (a video showing how to draw Eggman would certainly be helpful and funny lol)

I will say though, i never thought that the head and torso overlapped a little in the gesture drawings.

DredgeTH In reply to OriginalityAce [2016-03-31 06:57:11 +0000 UTC]

Females are a whole new can of worms. I'd argue that they are the most difficult sonic anatomy to draw and the video for that will require I REALLY simplify things because Yardley actually changes the way the female looks. I've counted like 3-4 different ways he draws them but it's hardly noticeably because he only changes it for certain situation e.g fight scenes, standing still, etc. Β But i'll eventually do all of them

I was actually supposed to say something about that but I forgot and i'm so annoyed, but essentially because Yardley draws them with no necks the torso will in mostly ever case overlap with the head.Β 

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

OriginalityAce In reply to DredgeTH [2016-03-31 08:11:11 +0000 UTC]

I can agree with ya there. Drawing female sonic character is something that I almost always struggle with. (maybe it's a 'guy' thing lol) I'll really be looking forward to seeing that when you get to it. The main difference I notice in the female characters is the range in physique based on the characters age; Like Child (Cream & Marine), Teen/Young Adult (Amy & Rouge), and Adult (Vanilla).

Well I suppose that could be mentioned in the Video about the heads and faces, seeing as it's relevant; and of course, you could always use annotations. XD

Say, out of curiosity, do you by any chance have skype?

DredgeTH In reply to OriginalityAce [2016-03-31 09:25:50 +0000 UTC]

Yeah and there's the difference in the range of physiques. Honestly women are so complex to draw of course haha! But the good news is i'll have a lot of content to cover. Β It's great to get comments like yours because it keeps me wanting to do theses. Β Also people that use the knowledge from the videos that tag me in their art is equally gratifying.

All good points, i'll definitely bring it up then.

I do, however I use it once every 6 months XD
